Don’t Really Care singer Demi Lovato got a new tattoo and she’s exposing some serious side boob for you to see it and decode it. Similar to Angelina Jolie’s arm tattoo (a list of geographical coordinates of her children’s birthplaces), Lovato has inked her family member’s birthdays in Roman numerals on her rib cage. The five include the birthdays of her mother, two sisters, step-father and biological dad.Lovato has explained some of her other tattoos including the phrase “now I’m a warrior” on her back. She told Jimmy Kimmel that the song is “very, very meaningful to me…[it] was really difficult for me to write, record and now release.” Lovato has been applauded for such honesty and has become a role model for your girls. During a photo shoot for a Tampax commercial, Lovato told Access Hollywood: “If you live your whole career just singing and just taking pictures and just living in front of everyone, if you don’t use your voice for good, it’s actually a very vain career, [a] narcissistic career, so I want to use my voice for good and I know that I can do a lot other than singing,” she continued. “And that’s what I want to do. That’s what I want to show people.”

Angelina Jolie made his “Unbroken” actor physically sick. Japanese singer-actor Miyavi, who plays the sadistic prison camp leader Mutsuhiro Watanabe in the war drama film, was left sobbing after filming intense scenes.Cast member Angelina Jolie poses at the premiere of "Maleficent" at El Capitan theatre in Hollywood, California May 28, 2014. The movie opens in the U.S. on May 30.The film, which is produced and directed by Jolie based on the novel of the same name by Laura Hillenbrand, is based on the story of Olympic athlete Louis Zamperini, who survived a plane crash in the Pacific, only to be caught by the Japanese during the World War II. Zamperini spent over two and a half years as a prisoner of war in Japanese camps.Playing Watanabe, Miyavi filmed scenes wherein he tortured the prisoners of war, including Zamperini (played by Jack O’Connell). Jolie encouraged him to get into character by immersing himself into the mindset of the prison guard leader who was accustomed to violence.“It was awful torture for me to hate the other actors – I had to have hatred for them,” the 33-year-old pop star told Vanity Fair magazine, as quoted by eonline.com. “When I had to beat them, I had to think about protecting my family. At the same time, I didn’t want to be just a bad guy. I wanted to put humanity in this role. [Matsuhiro] was both crazy and sadistic, but also weak and traumatised.”The torture scenes had Miyavi throw up after, and some of the more violent scenes had him crying nonstop.“It’s a story that is still painful for my country,” he added. “But she [Jolie] told me she wanted to make a bridge between all countries that had conflict. She was very persuasive.”Jolie was also emotional about the film. She watched an early cut of the film with Zamperini before the war hero died on July 2 at age 97.“I was more emotional than he was,” Brad Pitt’s wife previously told Vanity Fair of Zamperini. “I went in to take care of him – and he was taking care of me.”“Unbroken,” which was shot in Australia, also stars Garrett Hedlund, Jai Courtney, Domhnall Gleeson, Finn Wittrock, John Magaro, Luke Treadaway, Travis Jeffery and Alex Russell. It will hit theatres on December 25.

She has won an Oscar and regularly conquers the box office — so how hard could winning an election be? Globe-trotting Hollywood do-gooder Angelina Jolie hints in a new interview that she’s ready to enter politics.“When you work as a humanitarian, you are conscious that politics have to be considered. Because if you really want to make an extreme change, then you have a responsibility,” Jolie, 39, tells Vanity Fair’s December issue.“I honestly don’t know in what role I would be more useful — I am conscious of what I do for a living, and that [could] make it less possible,” said Jolie, director and a special envoy for the UN High Commissioner for Refugees.Pushed further, she admitted, “I am open” to pursing politics.Jolie — who directed the upcoming film “Unbroken,” about Olympian-turned-war hero Louis Zamperini — also dished on tying the knot with Brad Pitt, her partner of 10 years.“It does feel different,” she said. “It feels nice to be husband and wife.”The pair got hitched in the South of France in August, and Jolie said their six children lent a hand.“There was no cake, so Pax made a cake,” she said, referring to their second-oldest son.“The kids made little pillows for the rings, and Knox practiced [being a ringbearer] with an acorn that kept falling off the pillow. Brad’s mom went and picked some flowers and tied them up.”
She said their kids wrote her and Pitt’s vows.“They did not expect us never to fight, but they made us promise to always say ‘sorry’ if we do. So they said, ‘Do you?’ and we said, ‘We do!’ ” Jolie said.She noted both she and Pitt worked on war movies at the same time recently with Pitt on the World War II tank thriller “Fury” and her on “In the Land of Blood and Honey.”They sent each other notes in the mail to replicate World War II GIs would received letters from loved ones back home, she said.She broke down in tears discussing the true story behind “Unbroken,” due out next month, and Zamperini’s incredible tale of survival.Zamperini, who ran in the 1936 Berlin Games, flew in the Air Force and was shot down over the Pacific. He floated at sea for 47 days before he was captured and sent to a Japanese POW camp.“It was an extremely emotional experience, to watch someone watching their own life … someone so physically strong … and they are at the stage where their body is giving up,” she said.
